If you're not using a recent GNU Make, you can try to compile Org without one (as described in the FAQ on Worg), however I'd suggest you use the ELPA package instead. That said, the result of the particular invocation that requires date is only used in the documentation, so if you really want to see how far you can progress beyond that, simply remove the "$(shell date +%Y-%m-%d)" in mk/targets.mk and replace it with the current date like "2014-04-06".
